The European Space Agency has selected two Indra projects, ATLAS and SELENE, to progress to the consolidation phase of its IRIS2 secure satellite communications initiative. These projects aim to enhance the EU’s secure satellite communications system, with ATLAS focusing on air traffic management and surveillance, and SELENE targeting direct communications using 5G Non-Terrestrial Networks technology. The selection was made as part of the ESA’s efforts to develop future European space capabilities for resilient government services, as reported by an unknown source.
